The European Commissioner for Democracy, Justice, the Rule of Law and Consumer Protection, Michael McGrath, announced this Thursday at the Forum Europa in Brussels that next month he will present the proposal for the 28th Regime to the College of Commissioners. This optional, digital European corporate framework is designed to facilitate the creation, expansion, and investment of companies throughout the Single Market.

McGrath made these remarks while participating in an information session organised by New Economy Forum in the EU capital.

The European Commissioner for Democracy, Justice, the Rule of Law and Consumer Protection, Michael McGrath, asserted this Thursday at the Forum Europa in Brussels that "strong democracies do more than protect rights" because "they foster resilient economies" and that "transparent and accountable institutions give businesses the confidence to invest and citizens the certainty to participate".

McGrath made these remarks while participating in an information session organised by the New Economy Forum in the EU capital.

The EU official argued that "in an era where the manipulation of information is increasingly used as a geopolitical weapon, and where information ecosystems isolate citizens in watertight compartments", supporting democracy means "defending the stability of our free, open, and pluralistic societies".

The European Commissioner for Democracy, Justice, the Rule of Law and Consumer Protection, Michael McGrath, stated this Thursday at the Forum Europa in Brussels that there is agreement within the EU on protecting minors online, but there is disagreement on whether to establish access controls or prohibit social media for anyone under 16, as proposed by Spanish President Pedro Sánchez and already implemented by Australia.

McGrath made this statement while speaking at the New Economy Forum briefing held in the EU capital, where he was asked about the measures that the European Commission, the European Parliament, and other institutions will take to protect minors online.

The President of the European People's Party (EPP) and Chairman of the EPP Group in the European Parliament, Manfred Weber, stated this Wednesday in Brussels at the Forum Europa that sending "peacekeeping troops" to Ukraine could be the "starting point" for a "European Army" once an agreement is reached to end the war in that country.

Weber made these remarks while participating in an information session organised by New Economy Forum in the EU capital, where the European leader was introduced by Dolors Montserrat, Secretary General of the EPP.

The President of the European People's Party (EPP) and President of the EPP Group in the European Parliament, Manfred Weber, stated this Wednesday at the Forum Europa in Brussels that the "decisive battle" in the 2029 European elections could be between the EPP and the far-right, due to the weakness of other political positions, such as the center-left.
